Hey my family.
How bad of an idea is it to buy an RX7 FB or FC as a first car?
These are pretty much just project cars for the experienced at this point right?

Can you wrench? Can you diagnose a car without obd1 or 2? What do you do if it won't start and you need to be somewhere? Do you have a specialty rotary shop? Can you afford the shit mpg?

This is one end of the rx7 owner spectrum.

>>15233367
don't buy an RX7 if you can't take good care of it. And taking care of RX7's takes more than "not crashing it into a tree".

rotaries are piss easy to rebuild

an n/a FC is actually reliable if you don't flood it or don't let it warm

the FB has a carbed 12a, it has less aftermakret than a 13b and >lol carbs

>This is a very clean rust free example with a completely rebuilt Pettit street port with less than 15,000 miles. (165k chassis)The rebuild included new rotors and housings. I'm selling because I have too many cars and not enough room. Besides the A/C blowing warm the photos and fresh engine tell the story. Please only serious inquiries! I will ignore CL nuts and low ballers.

This neo boomer wants 3500!?!

NA rotaries are reliable despite the memes. Had an N/A FC for a few years until I shoved it into a highway divider.
